Risk for Sarcopenia, Inflammatory Mediators, and Disability in Elderly Women with Low Back Pain: BACE-Brazil
نویسندگان
چکیده
Objective: To compare pain, disability and plasma inflammatory-mediators (tumornecrosis-factor [TNF]-alpha, soluble-TNF-receptor-1 [sTNF-R1], interleukin [IL]-1β, IL6) between elderly women with acute low back pain (LBP) “at risk” or “without risk” for sarcopenia. Subjects and methods: 155 women, from the “International Back Complaints in the Elders” study, were divided into groups: “without sarcopenia” and “at risk for sarcopenia”. Inflammatory-mediators were measured using enzyme-linked-immunosorbent-assays; Disability, using Roland-Morris-Disability-Questionnaire; and Pain, using McGill-PainQuestionnaire, Numerical-Pain-Scale, and frequency. Results and conclusions: 52.26% elderly women were “at risk” for sarcopenia and had higher levels of sTNF-R1 (p=0.037), greater LBP severity (p=0.043), frequency (p=0.037) and disability (p=0.011) than those without risk for sarcopenia.
